[@AlAndersonlogworker]

Nice log house design. Is the garage log sided?

[@jamesholt8620]

I live in Savannah and would love a log home that is handicapped accessible

[@markwarren7116]

I can only dream!

[@brooktroutangler5917]

Where can I get the plans for the log home on Madeline Island? The 2nd home in your video.

[@rolliby24]

Pretty bold statement to make since there are other log home companies that are bigger and sell more.

[@liketheuniverse11]

Maybe too modern...but I love the fireplace!

[@ldunmeyer1177]

We built a home that looks like a log home but just more energy efficient. We used log siding and had custom ends made to replica the corners of an authentic log home. We don't have to worry about about gapping of the logs and it is much warmer. To look @ our home inside and out you would never guess that it is not log. Much cheaper than buying a log package.

L Dunmeyer I love to get more information. I've wanted to do the same with my mountain cabin. Thanks, Russ [e-mail]

[@ldunmeyer1177]

Hi Russ, what information are you looking for? I'd be glad to give you any information I can!

[@russpottenger4674]

L Dunmeyer there has been improvements in log siding giving it more an authentic look including full round log ends. Am I describing what you did to yours? Thanks, Russ [e-mail]

[@ldunmeyer1177]

Yes, that is what we did. We have a normal stick built home in which we duplicated the Strongwood loghome called the Onway. We had a local lumber company customize the log siding ship lap style. We had ends made for the corners too. The Amish made all our railing. We love our home and it was a fraction of the cost of a loghome package. I will try to forward a picture to your E mail address.

[@russpottenger4674]

L Dunmeyer That would be awesome Laurie. I Appreciate that so much. The closest look that I like is something made by Northern Log Supply. They have a product that has the full round log ends.

So anybody gonna ask how much? I mean really.

[@BobMarcom]

@KesslersCross . We did not start manufacturing until 15 or 16 years ago; although we are one of the largest in log company's in America now. So we did not build log homes in the 1800's. Congratulations on your "kit" purchase. Best wishes as you build it yourself. That is rare these days. Bob

ONAWAY

[@BobMarcom]

@KesslersCross - Ah, indeed you are correct! that's why we manufacturer over 75 different log styles and some are certainly rustic. However, with every log style ---rustic or upscale---you need energy efficiency and minimal maintenance and modern HVAC. You are right about the settlers in America although you'd be surprised to know that the early Scandinavian settlers built some large and sophisticated log homes. It was the pioneers out West who just slapped logs together.

[@BobMarcom]

@diyLogHomes Yes. the garage/barn is log sided. It is much more practical and less expensive when energy efficiency and interior finish is not an issue.
